私がモテないのはどう考えてもお前らが悪い!

Watashi ga Motenai no wa dō Kangaetemo Omaera ga Warui!

No Matter How I Look at It, It’s You Guys' Fault I’m Not Popular!

Synopsis

This chapter gives a different perspective from the previous chapters of the graduation ceremony. This opens with Tomoki observing Yoshida dragging his sister to Megumi Imae. He suspects his sister is being bullied. Like his sister, he views Yoshida as a "delinquent." Yoshida demands to know what he is looking at; however, Tomoki sees Megumi hugging his sister. As Yoshida walks away, Tomoki wonders if his sister even knows her.

He turns back to recognize Megumi as the valedictorian and wonders if she also knows his sister. He notices, in the background, Ucchi seething over Megumi hugging Tomoko. Inwardly, she accuses Tomoko of "making a pass" at a graduate and says "Absolutely disgusting!" Both notice one another. Ucchi returns to staring at Tomoko and thinking "disgusting," while Tomoki wonders if "this girl" also knows his sister. Thinking of Kotomi, Tomoki figures that all of the girls who knows his sister "are weirdos," save for the upperclasswoman hugging her who "seems normal enough." Yuri and Mako walk past him noting that Tomoko seems to know the former student council president. Tomoki muses that when she first entered high school, Tomoko kept barging into his room since she had no one to talk to, but she now seems to have friends. It has been two years, he notes, so she would have to change a little.

A wide-eyed and excited Tomoko sits in his room babbling that his sempai asked her to pin her corsage to him and wondering if he said anything about her. He concludes that some things never change.
